How do I protect my base from other raiders?

The easiest way to do so is to purchase a special shield which surrounds your island with a thick cloud screen, hiding it from the prying eyes of enemy scouts. But we're not looking for an easy way here, are we? The secret of a well-protected base is in its layout. Always keep important buildings like your stronghold and resource storages protected! Surround the base with an impregnable wall and place some towers behind it to destroy the enemy on approach. There's a virtually endless number of possible layouts. Some are better for generating resources, some are intended for defending them. Check out our community for useful tips and share your effective layouts with others!
